Fundraising Administration Volunteers
The Red Cross is mandated by congress to provide disaster relief assistance, but we are not funded by the government to provide these resources. Therefore, we are heavily dependent on the generosity of our donors to keep the mission going, helping families effected by disasters every day in our communities.
We are looking for volunteers interested in learning more about nonprofit fundraising, donor research and how our mission supports communities.
